Confirmed from Riverfront Parkway's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Riverfront Parkway
Well taken care of, smaller park, that goes right along the river and backs up to a nice long trail. The area is newer, and also is very close to downtown. Some very nice shaded areas, lots of benches and areas to sit. (No playground).
Great place on the river for a 2-mile or less hike. Food and drink available in many places.
Nice park for trail walking through the woods along a stream...river..
Trail conditions & character
“Peaceful place with nice views and a large metal art piece.”
